Isaac had no choice but to use the same method, wrapping the remains in spiritual energy and crushing all the bugs to ensure they wouldn’t escape."Who would’ve thought the black energy from the Dark Dragon Cultivation Manual had this kind of effect?" Isaac marveled, sensing the unique properties of the black spiritual energy flowing within him. This new discovery both surprised and delighted him.Above the vibrant city of Westgate in the bustling heart of the Ironridge Mountains, Isaac drove his sword into the left shoulder of a black-cloaked figure hiding on a rooftop. He infused the strike with spiritual energy, instantly locking the man in placeThe man’s eyes widened in shock. At the first chance, he attempted to self-destruct, his eyes full of resignation. But something suddenly clouded his mind, and he faltered, appearing lost and groggy."If you’re determined to die, at least tell me what I need to know. Otherwise, I’ll keep you alive and make it a slow and painful end," Is
"No! Please don't kill me."The person in the black robe twisted his body into a grotesquely exaggerated angle, almost snapping his own neck. Then, their body began to decay and melt, oozing out green pus with bugs mixed in.Even through the thick spiritual energy, Isaac felt nauseous and sick at this moment.Isaac had additional questions he wanted to ask.This person had completely dissolved and showed no signs of life.He didn't self-destruct but ended up dying in another way.Could this be one of the Lich King's methods to prevent his subordinates from leaking information?The Lich King had been alive for many years. Could he have lived as long as the two old demons from Blood Dragon Island, for 10,000 years?He never expected that such a group of humans would live in the extreme cold of the South. Calling them humans made Isaac, who shared the same clan, disgusted.The Westgate City was another area of the market.Isaac caught another person in a black cloak and was abou
Even if his mind could break free from constraints, his body remained confined and could not escape them.A hoarse female voice was still praying.Every time she prayed, he felt his soul grow a little more weary.The prayer was intended to make him completely give up resisting and let his soul fall into a deep slumber.In that case, he would be lost forever in endless "happiness.""What the heck are these deviant spells?"Isaac shouted loudly while his entire body jolting with energy.He could only resist the encroachment on his soul by others in this way now."Stop resisting and open your youthful arms to embrace."The Lich King will use your flesh to satisfy his hunger and your soul to forge magical artifacts. He will ascend the divine steps with your power, and when he returns to the world, all beings will listen," a woman said gently."Bullshit! If you've got guts, come and kill me now!" Isaac shouted furiously.At that moment, he felt there was truly no way for him to e
Bang!Isaac suddenly broke free from the rope and vanished from sight.The next moment,The black dog was firmly caught by a large hand made of spiritual energy, and its eyes were filled with surprise and fear."How did you do that!"A voice filled with fear from a woman.The black dog swelled dramatically, transforming into a creature with nine heads and nine tails, with vivid green flames blazing across its body.The woman and Isaac also saw it.Hanging upside down behind the gallows, in the central area of the altar.Isaac looked serious and remained focused, not daring to relax at all.The words Esther just said were still lingering in his mind.This was the second time Esther helped him; the last time was just a few days ago when the old lady on Blood Dragon Island wanted to kill him.Now, Esther helped him again, and clearly, even someone as strong as Esther had grown tired."Kill him."From the mouth of the nine-headed hellhound, it growled.The hanging man fell t
The head responded."How can I address the cholera outbreak here?" Isaac asked again."Killing the hanged man and the Harpax won't solve the problem; there will always be other apostles. The Lich King will watch over everything that happens here," the head responded with a blank expression."Is there any benefit for me if I kill the hanged man and that dog? Where do I go to take them out?" Isaac asked again.After that, he asked many questions.This head was much easier to control than those in black robes. There was almost no resistance, and it answered truthfully to any question asked.In just over ten minutes, Isaac, holding a head in his hand, teleported to a hidden cave in the central area of the Ironridge Mountains."Oh no! That person is skilled in manipulation; he's coming!" The woman in the black robe who was hanging upside down exclaimed in shock.She hadn't had time to dodge when suddenly, a figure appeared beside her.Whoosh!The sword slashed with ferocity, cutti
From now on, they no longer needed to worry or be afraid."That's great!""These evil, utterly heinous things deserve to be torn apart!""Long Drakon, you're so mighty and powerful!"All of the people cheered.However, some people remained skeptical because no one knew for sure if the witchcraft crisis had truly been resolved.If Isaac were to eliminate the group of people in black robes in front of him, the threat of witchcraft would still remain. What should be done then?Due to the mysterious nature of this turmoil, no one was confident about whether it could be resolved."Dear fellow villagers, I understand your concerns. To be honest, I'm worried too. We all know these people in black robes are always pretending to be mystical, with many accomplices lurking around like rats, causing endless trouble," Isaac spoke loudly.When he spoke those words, the expressions on everyone's faces changed.The people who were loudly cheering just now have all fallen silent, with fear wr
"Lord Drakon seized all the most powerful artifacts from the black-robed leader, which shows how formidable he is.""I really like Lord Drakon. He is honest and down-to-earth.""If even such a powerful demonic artifact can be controlled by the Lord Drakon, then there's nothing the Lord Drakon can't do.""You are our guardian angel!"……The civilians felt safe.Even the officials who were watching had looks of admiration for Isaac.In the Upper Martial Realm, there was a deep admiration for the strong, especially when such a powerful figure was approachable, shared rare insights that people usually didn't get to see, and offered them protection.They really admired someone this strong.Isaac wanted exactly this kind of result.Finally, he spoke again, urging the people that if necessary, they should respond to the kingdom's call and relocate for a few years.Once he had completely dealt with the enemies to the south and recaptured the lost territories in the north, he would n
Lord Drakon was not only incredibly powerful but also possessed excellent political skills."Did you understand everything I just said?"Isaac stood up, preparing to leave. Before departing, he glanced at the city lord next to him and asked seriously."I understand, sir." The city lord immediately nodded and bowed respectfully."Great, these three new magical artifacts I acquired might not be good at everything, but they're really effective at tormenting souls. I've had a lot of enemies lately and I'm in a bad mood. The thing I hate the most is people who annoy me. You'd better not upset me," Isaac spoke while putting away three magical artifacts.To maximize the intimidation of the city lord and ensure he handled this tricky and difficult matter, he also revealed the vengeful spirits of the Ten Thousand Resentful Bones and the green dog head from Soul Purifying Flask.The overwhelming evil energy, the foul smell, and the ferocity of the Hellhound's head caused the city lord an
"Ah!" Isaac let out a low, raspy scream.It hurt so much.The suffering of spiritual anguish was just as intense as physical pain, if not more so.In an hour, the Darklord lowered the intensity of the torment to a level where Isaac was in constant pain, but not killing him."You talk too much, woman. When the barrier is lifted, I'll make sure you understand the consequences of being so talkative!" the Darklord looked at Mixandrei and spoke in a sinister tone.Then, he let out a cold laugh."No rush, I've got plenty of time to wait this out with you. It's only been a few months, and I can wait alongside you for decades or even hundreds of years. Take your time and enjoy."……After finishing the statement, he stopped talking again and just sat there, using a few methods to torment.One month…Two months…One year…Two years…......In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed.Isaac's spirit was tormented by Darklord for an entire decade.Over the past ten years, Isaac ha
At that moment, his words pierced Isaac's ears like a sharp knife; it was also like a blow to Isaac.It was indeed, a spiritual blow."One day, I will tear you apart and make you regret ever being born." Isaac clenched his teeth, his face flushed, and he issued a threat."Hmm?" The Darklord furrowed his brow, clearly not expecting Isaac to have the audacity to say something like that."You're gutsy, but it's also kind of ridiculous. Do you even realize the situation you're in right now? Do you really think you can pull it off?" the Darklord responded with mocking sarcasm.Over the past two months, Mixandrei stayed within a protective shield, shedding countless tears and yelling until her voice was hoarse, but it was all in vain.She could only watch helplessly as her beloved was continuously tormented, unable to do anything under the barrier.That had just as much of an impact on her."Isaac, I don't understand what you're still holding onto. You're exhausted. Why not let go an
At that moment, he had no idea how naive his words were.The Darklord quickly transported him to a dark space to torment his soul. He was coerced to submit and become a slave, and reveal all his secrets.For the first time in his life, Isaac was experiencing such torment.It was pure torment from the Darklord!It was like being better off dead than alive."Kneel, submit to me, acknowledge me as your master, and become my servant. Otherwise, I'll keep tormenting you like this forever."The Darklord tormented Isaac's spirit while giving him orders.The Darklord appeared quite unhurried.Isaac was even threatened, with the implication that if he didn't agree, there would be some very inappropriate actions taken against Mixandrei right in front of him.Faced with that situation, Isaac couldn't hold back his anger and felt the urge to fight back.But he was too weak.The soul artifact buffed his spirit, but it only allowed him to contend with the Sacrificial Phase in its early st
"Who's there?" Isaac suddenly shouted in alarm.Someone nearby launched a surprise attack.Mixandrei was slightly slow to react but she chose to trust Isaac and prepare for battle together with him.Thud!A sharp flash of a blade cut through the void.They immediately retaliated with all their strength."King of Pyrois?" Isaac squinted, trying to identify.That person was covered head to toe in a black cloth, concealing the true appearance.The battle resumed. Isaac was evenly matched but soon another enemy appeared behind him.It was the King of Pyrois."Haha, Zegna, thanks for inviting me to help out. If I let him get away, I'm going to regret it for the rest of my life!" King of Pyrois laughed heartily."Zegna?" Isaac squinted his eyes."Could this man in black really be Zegna?"King of Pyrois and Zegna, one in front and one in back, were positioning themselves to launch an attack on Isaac and Mixandrei.At that point, the power of the soul artifact became evident once
In the recent fight, the King of Pyrois was on the weak side and it left him a bit annoyed.But it was okay.There were plenty of allies nearby."Everyone, attack!" As soon as he gave the order, two hundred guards charged continuously, wave after wave.Although they were mere mortals, the realm's blessing endowed them to pose a threat to Isaac and Mixandrei."Let's go!"Isaac wasn't willing to stay any longer. He grabbed Mixandrei and prepared to leave."You think you can get away? Not a chance!" King of Pyrois flew into the air, attempting to intercept.Isaac attempted to rip through spacetime but was thwarted because they could seal the void.That made his heart skip a beat because it would be difficult for them to leave by using the Principles of the Void."There's a gap, go that way!" Mixandrei launched an attack in another direction to enlarge the gap.Isaac followed right behind.However, the King of Pyrois was close behind, moving faster than the two of them."Get l
Just as Isaac was about to strike, a captain stopped the guard and ordered, "Don't make things difficult for them, let them in!"……"Yes." The guards behaved and followed orders.Then one of the guards whispered a threat to Isaac."Once we're in City 12, don't try any sneaky stealing. Otherwise, I'll definitely catch you!"……Isaac squinted and glanced at him as he remained silent.Isaac and Mixandrei entered the city.The streets and buildings inside the city looked just like those in the real realm.Isaac soon realized that the people living there all had a strong spiritual resilience.No wonder those guards were so arrogant. In the outside realm, anyone who dared to be that arrogant toward a high-level martial artist would be dead."The person who just allowed the two of you to enter the city without any trouble was actually the advisor. He recognized you both. The advisor would like to meet the two of you. Would two of you be willing to oblige?" At that moment, a thin
After taking action, they realized that although they could harness certain natural laws, in terms of spirit strength, the opponent was unbeatable.They simply couldn't hurt the civilians at all.Isaac kept blinking behind his opponent trying to launch a sneak attack, only to find that the opponent's spirit shield was incredibly resilient.It was impossible to break open."It's strange, does the realm really protect ordinary civilians? We can't do anything to them at all." Isaac was surprised.They were both shocked and found it unbelievable."We can't do anything to them, and they can't do anything to us either," Mixandrei spoke in a cold tone.It was clear that she was in a bad mood and upset right now.They were offended by a group of ordinary people, yet unable to do anything about them."Please, the two of you should leave. We don't welcome outsiders here. If you are truly kind-hearted, go into the city, there are places there that will welcome you!" At that point, a youn
"Just standing here and watching isn't really helpful. Let's go over and talk to them," Isaac proposed.Mixandrei, although a bit concerned, did not refuse.They walked over.Upon seeing Isaac and Mixandrei, the villagers slightly paused and did not appear overly surprised.That left Isaac and Mixandrei surprised.Wouldn't ordinary villagers be wary when they suddenly see two strangers coming to their village?"Hello, everyone," Isaac greeted.Two fishermen continued chatting casually as they worked, laughing as if nothing unusual was happening."It looks like more outsiders from other realms have arrived. Our place has been bustling lately."......Upon hearing those words, Isaac and Mixandrei were both taken aback.There were many people from other realms?What did that mean?"Hello everyone. As you can see, this is our first time in this realm, and we're not very familiar with it. We would like to learn more from you," Isaac began speaking.He maintained a calm and com
Isaac introduced."I've never heard of such a realm before, and I'm eager to go in and see it!" Mixandrei widened her beautiful eyes in surprise and exclaimed excitedly.After speaking, she reached out and touched the boundaries of that realm.But, she was pushed back as her spirit was unable to get close."Only a portion of our spirit can enter the soul artifact, and even after being enhanced by it, we're not strong enough to go inside. We might need to put all our spirits into the soul artifact, but if we do that, our bodies in the real realm would be motionless, like corpses." Isaac speculated."So what? We can lie in the sarcophagus, and with the protection of the sarcophagus and the secret chamber, our true form will definitely be safe. Then our spirit enters the artifact," Mixandrei proposed."Great idea, let's do it this way!" Isaac nodded in agreement.At that moment, he felt that the coffin yard was remarkable because its defensive power was off the charts.Dreamlerq's
